Cruze Control #YA

My first YA novel, Cruze Control has been sent out into the #Pitchwars mentor contest and here comes #Pimpmybio

Cruze Control: Two secrets and the promise to keep them serve as the glue that keeps a family together but ultimately the bomb that destroys it. Set in 1986 and present day YA historical fiction.
About me: I lived in Chicago until a year ago when I made my dream of living in the mountains a reality. I live at 8200 feet in the forest surrounded by pine trees and forest animals. My city friends assumed my life would be like Snow White with forest creatures helping me with housework and such. That hasn't happened … so far. What has happened which is even better is that I have written 3 picture books and my first YA novel.
